Todd's Expert Take
I'm Todd, founder of Junk Car Medics. I've been helping people sell junk cars for cash in Louisville for over 10 years. I've learned that most sellers want two things — top dollar and fast service. We deliver on both. Our offers are fair, guaranteed, and we'll often match or beat written offers from competitors to earn your business.
Last month alone, we bought more than 61 for an average price of $474. Now is a great time to sell. We're actively paying cash for cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs. And there's no car I want to buy more than yours, and I'll prove it with our offer!

Common Questions
Do you buy junk cars in my area?
Yes. Our junk car service buys clunkers across the area, including Jeffersontown, St. Matthews, Shively, Newburg, Pleasure Ridge Park, Valley Station, Fern Creek, Okolona, and Highview. No matter where you are located we will make you a fair offer and come to you to remove your vehicle at no charge.
What paperwork do I need to sell my junk car?
To sell your junk car in Louisville, Kentucky, you'll need a valid title, photo ID, and registration. If you don't have the title, visit your local Kentucky County Clerk's office or apply online through the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet using form TC 96-182 and paying a fee. You can also sell your car with just a registration (held for 30+ days) and photo ID.
How are junk cars recycled and disposed of?
When you junk cars for cash, you are selling an old, damaged, or non-running vehicle to a licensed buyer, such as an auto salvage yard, junk car buyer, or car recycling facility. The buyer pays for the value of the parts and scrap metal, dismantles it, and recycles or reuses the components responsibly. We work with licensed salvage and car disposal facilities that follow Kentucky environmental regulations. Through our local partners, we have recycled over 329 tons of metal, safely drained more than 3,948 gallons of fluids, and salvaged 3,253 usable parts from Louisville vehicles this year. This process puts quick cash in your pocket while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
